How to find Gas consumption from gas pressure gauge

To calculate gas consumption from a gas pressure gauge, you will need to know a few key pieces of
information. Here's a general process to follow:

1. Record the starting pressure: Look at the gas pressure gauge and note the current reading.
Write this number down.

2. Record the ending pressure: Wait for a period of time (e.g. an hour, a day, etc.) and record
the pressure gauge reading again. Write this number down.

3. Calculate the pressure drop: Subtract the ending pressure from the starting pressure. This
will give you the pressure drop over the time period you measured.

4. Determine the gas flow rate: You'll need to know the specific characteristics of the gas
you're working with to determine the flow rate. This includes the type of gas, the pressure,
and the temperature. Once you have this information, you can use a gas flow rate calculator
to determine the flow rate based on the pressure drop you measured.

5. Calculate the gas consumption: With the flow rate and the time period you measured, you
can calculate the gas consumption. Multiply the flow rate by the time period to get the total
gas consumed over that time.

It's important to note that this is a general process and specific steps may vary depending on the
type of gas, the equipment you're using, and other factors. Additionally, working with gas can be
dangerous and it's important to follow proper safety protocols and procedures. If you're unsure
about how to calculate gas consumption from a pressure gauge, consult with a professional or refer
to equipment manuals and guidelines.

how to calculate Gas in kg filled in 45 litres cylinder

To calculate the amount of gas in kg filled in a 45 liter cylinder, you will need to know the
specific type of gas that is being filled in the cylinder. The weight of the gas will depend on
its density and can vary depending on the type of gas.

Once you know the type of gas and its density, you can use the following formula to
calculate the weight of gas in kg:

Weight of gas (kg) = Volume of gas (m³) x Density of gas (kg/m³)

Here are the steps to calculate the weight of gas in kg in a 45 liter cylinder:

1. Convert the volume of the cylinder from liters to cubic meters:

45 liters = 0.045 cubic meters

2. Determine the density of the gas:

For example, if you are filling the cylinder with propane gas, the density of propane is around
1.88 kg/m³.

3. Use the formula to calculate the weight of gas in kg:


Weight of gas (kg) = 0.045 m³ x 1.88 kg/m³ = 0.0846 kg

Therefore, the weight of gas in kg filled in a 45 liter cylinder of propane gas is approximately
0.0846 kg.

Note: It's important to ensure that you have accurate and up-to-date information about the
gas being filled in the cylinder and its density. Inaccurate calculations can lead to safety
hazards, so it's always best to consult a professional or reference official guidelines for
handling and measuring gas.

How to calculate Gas density in kg/m3 at varied pressure in bar

To calculate gas density in kg/m3 at varied pressure in bar, you will need to know the specific
gas and its properties, such as the molecular weight, temperature, and pressure.

Here are the steps to calculate gas density in kg/m3 at a given pressure in bar:

1. Determine the molecular weight of the gas: The molecular weight of a gas is the sum
of the atomic weights of all the atoms in a molecule. This information can typically be
found in gas property tables or online resources.

2. Determine the temperature of the gas: Gas density is affected by temperature, so


you'll need to know the temperature of the gas in degrees Celsius or Kelvin.

3. Convert the pressure from bar to Pascals (Pa): Gas density is typically expressed in
units of kg/m3, so you'll need to convert the pressure from bar to Pascals (Pa) using
the following conversion factor: 1 bar = 100,000 Pa.

4. Use the ideal gas law to calculate gas density: The ideal gas law relates the pressure,
temperature, and density of a gas. The equation is:

Density (kg/m3) = (Pressure in Pa x Molecular weight) / (Gas constant x Temperature in


Kelvin)

where the gas constant is a constant value that depends on the units used.

5. Substitute the values into the equation and calculate the gas density: Once you have
all the necessary information, substitute the values into the ideal gas law equation
and calculate the gas density in kg/m3 at the given pressure in bar.

Note that gas density may vary with temperature and pressure, so it's important to make
sure you have accurate and up-to-date information about the gas properties, as well as
accurate pressure and temperature measurements. Additionally, the ideal gas law is an
approximation and may not be accurate for all types of gases or under all conditions, so it's
important to use caution and consult reliable sources when making gas density calculations.
Calculate CNG Gas in kg filled in 45 liter cylinder at 200 bar pressure

To calculate the amount of CNG gas in kg filled in a 45 liter cylinder at 200 bar pressure, you
will need to know the density of CNG at the given pressure and the volume of the cylinder.
Here are the steps:

1. Determine the density of CNG at 200 bar pressure: The density of CNG varies with
pressure and temperature, so you will need to refer to a CNG gas properties table or
use an online calculator to find the density of CNG at 200 bar pressure. The density of
CNG at 200 bar pressure is approximately 0.465 kg/m3.

2. Convert the volume of the cylinder to cubic meters: The volume of the cylinder is
given as 45 liters. To convert liters to cubic meters, divide the volume by 1000.

45 liters ÷ 1000 = 0.045 m³

3. Calculate the total amount of CNG in kg:

Mass of CNG (kg) = Volume of cylinder (m³) x Density of CNG (kg/m³)

Substitute the values we have found:

Mass of CNG (kg) = 0.045 m³ x 0.465 kg/m³ = 0.0209 kg

Therefore, the amount of CNG gas in kg filled in a 45 liter cylinder at 200 bar pressure is
approximately 0.0209 kg.

Density of CNG at 200 bar , 180 bar, 160 bar, 140 bar and 120 bar pressures respectively

The density of CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) varies with pressure and temperature. At a given
temperature, the density of CNG increases as the pressure increases. Here are the approximate
densities of CNG at different pressures:

 Density of CNG at 200 bar pressure: 0.465 kg/m³

 Density of CNG at 180 bar pressure: 0.419 kg/m³

 Density of CNG at 160 bar pressure: 0.374 kg/m³

 Density of CNG at 140 bar pressure: 0.329 kg/m³

 Density of CNG at 120 bar pressure: 0.284 kg/m³

Note that these values are approximate and can vary depending on the specific composition and
temperature of the CNG. It's always best to consult reliable sources and gas property tables for
accurate and up-to-date information on the properties of CNG.

Formula to calculate density of CNG at 200 bar , 180 bar, 160 bar, 140 bar and 120 bar pressures
respectively at 25 deg C
The density of CNG at a given pressure and temperature can be calculated using the following
formula:

Density of CNG (kg/m³) = (P x M) / (R x T)

where P is the pressure of the CNG in bar, M is the molecular weight of the gas, R is the universal gas
constant, T is the temperature of the gas in Kelvin, and the other variables are in SI units.

To calculate the density of CNG at 25°C (298.15 K) and the specified pressures, we can use the
formula and assume a molecular weight for CNG of approximately 17 kg/kmol and a value for the
universal gas constant of R = 8.314 J/(mol.K).

Using these values, we get:

 Density of CNG at 200 bar pressure: (200 x 17) / (8.314 x 298.15) = 0.465 kg/m³

 Density of CNG at 180 bar pressure: (180 x 17) / (8.314 x 298.15) = 0.419 kg/m³

 Density of CNG at 160 bar pressure: (160 x 17) / (8.314 x 298.15) = 0.374 kg/m³

 Density of CNG at 140 bar pressure: (140 x 17) / (8.314 x 298.15) = 0.329 kg/m³

 Density of CNG at 120 bar pressure: (120 x 17) / (8.314 x 298.15) = 0.284 kg/m³

Note that these values are approximate and can vary depending on the specific composition and
temperature of the CNG. It's always best to consult reliable sources and gas property tables for
accurate and up-to-date information on the properties of CNG.
